But Cup, Jasmine Tea

 I am a big fan of the Asian Plaza in Cleveland.

I went to the pharmacy and found some fun tea items.  The one that caught my eye was the But Cup.

 

I bought pack of But Cups. How could I pass on tea that comes in a container called, But Cup, lol!

I also bought this Peach Gum. It is called, Tao Jiao- a resin or sap from the peach and Chinese wild peach trees.  I am not sure much about it yet, but I plan on reading up on it.  I am hoping maybe to use it as a sweetener.

They have all kinds of items in the pharmacy. 

So...the But Cup.

It is a jasmine flavored tea.

The tea is at the bottom of the tea, all you do is add water.

It doesn't say, but I believe this is a white tea.

Here you can see the tea at the bottom of the cup.  The tea is sealed at the bottom of the cup with what is like a tea bag.

I discovered though that like all tea, you can't let the tea over steep.  I ended up pouring it into another cup so that I could drink it.

The tea flavor was okay.  But having to pour the tea into another cup to drink, kind of defeats the purpose of having the tea in the cup.  My thought is if the tea bag floated to the top or came out would make it a lot nicer.  The tea wasn't cheap, but I do understand you get the tea and the cup together. 

1 Peter 4:10-11, ESV

10 As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace: 11 whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
